Student Life

The college experience wouldn't be complete without UHD's state-of-the-art recreation center, club teams and intramural sports.
All of which allow students to stay in shape, show off their UHD Gator spirit, bond through teamwork and just plain have some fun.

​The University of Houston-Downtown Scholars Academy (SA) applications are accepted year-round for the fall and spring semesters. However, because funds are limited, students are urged to meet our apply early deadlines of December 1, February 1, or April 1. Priority is given to students who meet these dates.
